The Imperial Concubine's arrival had added a lot of splendor to the Yu Mansion, but what others might not know was that she had come with a difficult task. The expectations of Queen Ya Yu and even the people of Yue had increased the burden on her body.
Walking in the backyard with Yuheng, that kind of romantic feeling and warm scene slowly eroded her woman's soft heart. No one could feel the care and love that she needed deep in her heart, but this mysterious man beside her did it. Every time she was with him, no matter how dangerous the situation was, she could feel safe and happy. These days, she even had an extreme impulse to let those so-called revenge go to hell. In the future, she would only be herself and nothing else. A person's life was not long, and happy days were rare. If she did not consider it herself, how could others care about her feelings?
"What is the Imperial Concubine thinking? Do you think I'm very charming? There were many guests and beautiful women. Hehe, but you shouldn't be envious because wherever you go, there are the most dazzling pearls.”
"Is that so? Do you think so too?" Xi Shi asked seriously. This was what she was most concerned about. She didn't really care what others thought.
"Of course, the Imperial Concubine is the best in the world, the goddess of men's dreams.”Yu Heng did not think too much about it. He boasted endlessly, making Mi Ya laugh.
"F * ck, are you insulting me or praising me? I won't fall for your tricks." Although Xi Shi pretended to be angry, she was quite happy in her heart. As long as Yuheng praised her, she would like it and couldn't help but be happy.
"Yes, Empress. If I leave, don't regret it.”Yu Heng pretended to leave.
"You dare? If you leave me alone, I'll break your legs. Let's see if you still dare to tease me.”Xi Shi stomped her foot and acted coquettishly.
F * ck, the dignified Imperial Consort of Wu Country, a famous strong woman, enjoyed a lot of prestige among the officials, and even volunteered to be an envoy to the State of Qin. Everything had shaped his capable side, and he did not lose to men. But now, he actually acted coquettishly in front of him. That was unimaginable.
"Lord Yu, I finally found you here. My colleagues are all waiting for you in the living room to take charge of the situation.”Wu Zixu and Bo Pu hurried over. Before they arrived, their voices sounded anxious.
"Good, good, good. Imperial Concubine, let's go together. Without you here, everything will be dark.”Yu Heng made an inviting gesture.
Xi Shi nodded and was about to walk to the living room with Yu Heng. However, after a few steps, Xi Shi accidentally sprained her ankle and almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Wu Zixu was quick to react and supported her body. She did not fall to the ground but fell into Wu Zixu's arms.
"Empress, what's wrong?" Bo Pu came over and asked with concern. At the same time, he wanted to call the palace maid, but was stopped by Xi Shi.
"Lord Yu, Grand Zai, you guys go first. Lord Wu will help me back to my room to rest.”Xi Shi's face was filled with pain. Although Yu Heng was a little worried, he had no objections after hearing her say so. After all, he trusted Wu Zixu's sense of responsibility.
After the two of them left, Xi Shi, with Wu Zixu's help, came to the guest room in the east wing of the Yu Mansion. The decoration of the room was relatively simple, and the space was not big. She could only make do with resting for a while.
With the excuse that the room was small, Xi Shi deliberately sent out the palace maids who accompanied her, leaving only Wu Zixu behind. At first, he also felt that it was inappropriate, but after thinking about it, it was nothing. After settling down, he went out. However, when he turned around, Xi Shi's jade-like hand pulled his sleeve.
This kind of intimate behavior was not dared to be offended in the Spring and Autumn Period, especially the imperial consorts of the palace. It was even more treasonous.
"Lord Wu, there seems to be something stuck under my body. It's very uncomfortable to lie down.”
Wu Zixu hesitated for a moment and did not dare to step forward because it was absolutely forbidden and not polite.
"Niangniang, wait a moment. I will call a palace maid to come in and serve you.”Wu Zixu bowed, still not daring to step forward.
"Is Lord Wu worried about something? There's only you and me here. Besides, didn't you help me in earlier? Everyone else saw it, there was nothing wrong with it. It was just removing a foreign object, nothing else. Lord Wu, please don't be too worried.”Xi Shi consoled him, trying her best to make him feel relieved.
Wu Zixu stood up nervously and slowly walked over. He looked back at the door from time to time. He felt that there was no one there, so he relaxed and walked over. He bent down to lift Xi Shi's body, and the other hand reached under his body to take the foreign object, but he did not find anything.
Just as Wu Zixu was surprised that there was nothing under him, two palace maids suddenly walked in with a washbasin and a face towel. When they saw Wu Zixu's outrageous behavior, they shouted,"Lord Wu must not be rude. Offending the Empress is equivalent to offending the King.”
Wu Zixu's entire body trembled, and his hands that were groping under his body shrank back in shock. He hurriedly explained,"It's not what you think. I'm only helping the Empress remove the foreign object under her body. It's not an offense, so please don't misunderstand.”
Wu Zixu was worried that the two of them would not believe him, so he turned to Xi Shi and said,""Empress, quickly testify for this old official. It really wasn't what they thought just now.”
"How dare you, Wu Zixu, bully a woman while the king is not around.”Xi Shi gritted her teeth and pointed at Wu Zixu. She was no longer as amiable as before.
Wu Zixu knew that he had fallen into someone else's trap. In front of this terrifying woman, he was so stupid that he had fallen into someone else's trap.
At this moment, the two palace maids summoned a few bodyguards and tied Wu Zixu up.
Tears streamed down Xi Shi's face as she looked aggrieved, causing her to feel sorry for her. Her feet were aching, but it did not stop her from sitting up.
"Bring this crazy official back to the palace and wait for the king to punish him.”One of the officials ordered.
Yu Heng, who had rushed over after hearing the news, couldn't believe that Wu Zixu had actually suffered such a calamity. He looked at the heartbroken beauty and thought that there might be a misunderstanding.
"Lord Yu, you saved me. This is a false accusation. I, Wu Zixu, would never do such a thing. Brother Yu, you must find out the truth and prove my innocence.”Wu Zixu's parting words were indeed touching.
Yu Heng nodded and walked into the room, asking fiercely,""Why did you do this to him?
